    New here -anyone made a PCP (airgun tank) but paintball+ 1800's duelling?

    Has anyone made a PCP (air gun style tank) for a paintball? and What is the best single shot 1800's duelling pistol mod ever made?

    Thanks so much for looking

    They are a lot of fun.

    COB has played around with some PCP stuff I think and definitely made some dueling pistols.


    BretG has a couple he made and I have a couple I put together as well. From Left to Right: BretG, Mine, BretG, Mine
    Our are PGPs using a 12gr C02

      Are the flint functional or purely decorative?

      All are decorative. On the one I built on the far right side, it was made from the body of a denix cap gun. I was going to keep the cap function in place to add some pop and smoke to the action. I built it for a pirate game at EMR and the game got to close for me to finish that part of the build. It is still on my list.

      Thanks for the info
      I've been working (very) slowly on one with a functional flint ... Was hopping to find some inspiration to my madness 😜

    sounds like you need to come up to some Slim's events.
    get down on the quickdraw and get with G&H, chplnstone, JeeperCreeper or someone 2nd hand about a nice, singleshot

      My Quick draw Single shot. By Creeper Customs

      You should see the custom brass that comes out for the events. Check out the Sheridan section there are some wild pieces our MCB air smiths are making.

        Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the time y'all took to type out some suggestions.

        I'm going to message these people.
        Have a great new week.

        Be well

        Best regards,
        Kevin H.

          My dueling pistols aren't as pretty as Bret G or Netsurferdude2. Mine are rough but functional. Same for my muskets and blunderbuss. Also, the first musket is now set up with a 12-gram quick change.

            Wasn't there a Portuguese Daystate pistol that had an integral tank?
